It has been one of those nights, as I
believe that The Eagles once said. However, although I can't remember the lyrics
of the song, I am sure it wasn't about staying up
all night to finish a typesetting certain book which shall remain nameless, only
to find that - just as the protagonist of the
song had finished - his computer crashed and mangled everything he had done in
the previous five hours, so he had to start
again. Maybe I should write a song in which that happened. I could call it 'Dr
Shuker's Mystery Cat Book Blues'. Whoops I have
let the (full colour) cat out of the bag!
Never mind. I am so wired now, I am not going to go
to bed until later, so I shall probably work right on through...
Magick is the idiot bastard son of art and science;
a discipline resulting in an esoteric brew of ritual, theory, practice and
belief. If a ‘magician’ is someone who does ‘magick’, then – although I would
never deign to call myself a magician – I know, and have known, quite a few
people who are. A magician whom I have never met, but who, ever since I was
given a bootleg tape of 1987 What the Fuck is Going On? in the year it was
released has been, if not an influence on my life, most certainly a mirror into
which I peered, is Bill Drummond. For Bill Drummond is most certainly a
magician.

After having had three days of sparkling
conversation with the lovely Annie Haslam, I was well chuffed to find a copy of
the cover of the new album that we have been hearing about all week...

Michael Des Barres continues his series of calls to
arms in the Rock and Roll revolution. Most people would be being cynical if they
were to write a sentance like that in these degenerate days, but I mean every
word of it.

My old mate Paul Whitrow has a single out, and I am

The Gonzo Daily is a two way process. If
you have any news or want to write for us, please contact me at jon@eclipse.co.uk.
If you are an artist and want to
showcase your work, or even just say hello please write to me at gonzo@cfz.org.uk.
Please copy, paste and spread
the word about this magazine as widely as possible. We need people to read us in
order to grow, and as soon as it is viable we
shall be invading more traditional magaziney areas. Join in the fun, spread the
word, and maybe if we all chant
loud enough we CAN stop it raining. See you tomorrow...
The Gonzo Daily is - as the name implies - a daily online magazine (mostly) about artists connected to the Gonzo Multimedia group of companies. But it also has other stuff as and when the editor feels like it. The Editor is an old hippy of 53 who - together with his orange cat - puts it all together from a converted potato shed in a tumbledown cottage deep in rural Devon. He is ably assisted by his lovely wife Corinna, his bulldog/boxer Prudence, and a motley collection of social malcontents. Plus.. did we mention the orange cat?
